  • Mcconnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117Th Congress
    For Immediate Release, Wednesday, February 3, 2021 Contacts: David Popp, Doug Andres Robert Steurer, Stephanie Penn McConnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress Praises Senators Crapo and Tim Scott for their work on the Committee on Committees WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following the 50-50 power-sharing agreement finalized earlier today, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced the Senate Republican Conference Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress. Leader McConnell once again selected Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID) to chair the Senate Republicans’ Committee on Committees, the panel responsible for committee assignments for the 117th Congress. This is the ninth consecutive Congress in which Senate leadership has asked Crapo to lead this important task among Senate Republicans. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) assisted in the committee selection process as he did in the previous three Congresses. “I want to thank Mike and Tim for their work. They have both earned the trust of our colleagues in the Republican Conference by effectively leading these important negotiations in years past and this year was no different. Their trust and experience was especially important as we enter a power-sharing agreement with Democrats and prepare for equal representation on committees,” McConnell said. “I am very grateful for their work.” “I appreciate Leader McConnell’s continued trust in having me lead the important work of the Committee on Committees,” said Senator Crapo. “Americans elected an evenly-split Senate, and working together to achieve policy solutions will be critical in continuing to advance meaningful legislation impacting all Americans. Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit our nation, our economy was the strongest it has ever been.

COOKSEY AND JAMES E. “TREY” TRAINOR III INTRODUCTION Before his election to the U.S. Senate in 2018, Rick Scott served as the Chair of New Republican PAC, an independent expenditure-only political committee (“New Republican”). After presiding over that entity’s raising of nearly $1.2 million, then- Governor Scott resigned as New Republican’s Chair, conducted testing-the-waters activities, and formally announced his candidacy for the Senate. New Republican was an active participant during the campaign that followed, making nearly $30 million in independent expenditures. In response to the complaints in this Matter, which allege that Scott, his authorized committee, and New Republican committed various violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended (the “Act”), our Office of General Counsel (“OGC”) recommended that the Commission find reason to believe that New Republican violated the Act by raising and spending so-called “soft money”—funds raised in excess of the Act’s contribution limits—and that now-Senator Scott failed to timely file a statement of candidacy and a statement of organization for his attendant authorized committee.1 1 First Gen. Counsel’s Report (“FGCR”) at 26, MURs 7370/7496 (New Republican PAC, et al.). OGC also recommended taking no action at this time regarding various other allegations, such as whether Scott himself violated the soft money rules, and whether communications disseminated by New Republican PAC constituted illegal coordination with Scott’s allegedly untimely-filed campaign.

  • December 15, 2020 the Honorable Macro Rubio, US Senate The
    December 15, 2020 The Honorable Macro Rubio, US Senate The Honorable Rick Scott, US Senate Dear Senators Rubio and Scott, As you are aware, the year 2020 has posed immense challenges for the U.S. health care system and the medical community. Amid an unprecedented global pandemic, physicians and other health care professionals have worked tirelessly and made extraordinary sacrifices to meet the needs of patients, often risking their physical safety to ensure that the most sick and vulnerable among us are able to receive life-saving treatment. In addition to risking grave illness, many physicians throughout Florida have also suffered considerable economic harm that has endangered the financial sustainability of medical practices across the state. Unfortunately, with the holiday recess looming, Congress is now considering a flawed piece of surprise medical billing legislation that was drafted behind closed doors and released at the 11th hour, with no opportunity for stakeholders to negotiate its substantive details. While this legislation includes some important improvements over prior proposals, such as the ability to enter arbitration without meeting an arbitrary dollar-amount threshold and the ability to batch claims together for efficiency, the cumulative details of this legislation are crucial to its success and unfortunately still amount to a proposal that would further threaten the economic viability of physician practices. For instance, while the legislation excludes physicians from submitting legitimate charge data as evidence for consideration in the arbitration process, the bill nevertheless allows for insurers to submit government-set Medicare and Medicaid rates for the arbiter’s consideration, thereby creating an unlevel playing field tilted to the advantage of insurance companies.
